WELCOME ADDRESS
It is a privilege, an honor and a tremendous pleasure to have been chosen to organize the ORGANIZING
29th International Congress of the IALP. COMMITTEE
IALP is the oldest organization representing persons involved with scientific, educational Oskar Schindler
and professional issues related to communication, language, voice, speech, hearing and (President)
swallowing disorders and sciences in children and adults. IALP was founded in Vienna,
Austria, by Emil Froeschels, in 1924. Our members are in more than 55 countries Roberto Albera
around the world. IALP holds its scientific congresses every three years. It is the first (Co-President)
time that the IALP Congress is coming to Torino, in a vibrant city with a great history,
and many places of interest. Antonio Schindler
The SIFEL, the Italian Society of Phoniatrics and Logopedics, is very happy to invite you Irene Vernero
to Torino, the first capital of Italy in 1861, the last days of August 2013. It is the second
time (after Padua in 1962) that we have had an IALP Congress organized in Italy, where
an old tradition of communicology was carried out by Renato Segre, Giuseppe Bellussi
and Lucio Croatto and where Deglutology has had a major development.
Torino, as a location for the congress, offers many attractions (e.g. the Egyptian Mu-
seum, the second in the world, the Royal Castles and especially the Venaria Reale, IALP COMMITTEES
called the Italian Versailles, the National Automobile Museum, and the Movies Museum
in the Mole Antonelliana, which is shown in the first page of this announcement).
